Do you find yourself stressed out during the summer months?  It’s hard when we work and we have to ways to keep our children entertained, or pay for their daycare for full days instead of the partial days when they are in school.  Plus, if your kids are anything like mine, they are probably already eating you out of house and home (why are kids so much hungrier during the summer months, again?).

As difficult as it may seem, it really is important for you to try and stress less.  Stress is detrimental to our health, mental and physical. So, if you need a little bit of help, here are 3 ways to stress less this summer.

3 Ways to Stress Less This Summer

 

Head to the library

Go and grab yourself a book and then, actually read it.  I know you probably think that you don’t have time to read a book, but you need to make time.  Reading has been shown to stimulate your mind, while decreasing your stress. Plus, it helps improve your memory!  All of us parents could benefit from that, don’t you think?

 

Take a day off

I know that a day without pay doesn’t seem like it is going to lower your stress, because, well bills.  But the thing is, is that sometimes you simply need a day away. Head to the beach, head for a walk, take a nap, hang out with your kids.  Taking a day away from work will help you feel refreshed and more ready to take on the next day.

 

Take a social media break

Social media is great, and it has opened up so many doors for so many people.  But it is also a drain on our attention and can cause some serious envy. Staring at other people on their fancy vacations all summer long while you are at home can get depressing.  Commit to taking a break from social media, or maybe one day a week away from it and see how much more relaxed you can feel.
